Keeping with the theme of economic development on Between Editions right now, a representative of Van Hook Tire Center, Inc., confirmed that owner Kenny Van Hook will open a new store in the old Ford Building on North West Avenue.
Van Hook was unavailable for further details but look to the blog and the News-Times business section on Monday for more.
On the negative front, Burger Man on East Main has closed.
Bummer. I passed by the other day and almost stopped in until I realized it was closed.
Hmm I was just there a week ago. I knew they had switched to daytime hours only. Are they closed for good??
The sign on the door says “Sorry we have closed,” so I assume that means for good.
The huge Van Hook Tire sign on the old Ford dealership was our first clue.
Glad to see it confirmed. That building in a good location was quickly turning into an eyesore.
